Examples
$(document).ready(function()
{
$("#circleslider2").tinycircleslider({
interval : true
, dotsSnap : true
});
});
Note: There is no lightbox natively in tiny circleslider for this example fancybox was used.
$(document).ready(function()
{
$("#circleslider3").tinycircleslider({
dotsSnap : true
, radius : 170
, dotsHide : false
});
$("#circleslider3").find("a").fancybox();
});
To get a better understanding of how it all comes together I made a (corny) styled example. If someone can make a nicer design it would be greatly appreciated :)
$(document).ready(function()
{
$("#circleslider4").tinycircleslider({
dotsSnap : true
, radius : 215
, dotsHide : false
, interval : true
});
});
